Upon our arrival on Friday afternoon we asked what time the restaurant would close. We were told 10 p.m. We returned to the hotel at 9:30 and the lady serving the bar and restaurant told us the restaurant closed at 9:30 so we had to leave and find a place to eat. The following evening we went to the bar for drinks. We sat and waited for the same lady to serve us for 15 minutes. She completely ignored us while talking with someone at the bar. The place was not busy at all. We finally ended up going to the bar to order and we also felt we were over charged. The hotel overall was O.K. A little expensive for what it was but it was O.K.

Stayed 3 nights- asked for quick room clean up on Sunday while out from 7:45am to 12:15pm - was told they put it in as priority clean, they wouldn’t guarantee it though. Literally I just asked for the room to be tidied, garbage taken out, towels refreshed. And it wasn’t done, it was very disappointing so we never got cleaning service during our stay since we needed to be in the room to prepare for, our events in the afternoon. So I had to track down the housekeeping cart to get a few extra towels and toilet paper.
